The drafting experience is on a different level since you never know what's coming next. Chaos drafts are never the same. There are basically infinite combinations of possible boosters and the cards within. Chaos Draft rewards you for having a solid understanding of the standout Limited cards from ''Magic'''s past. In-set synergies are usually to be avoided, because there are not enough of those cards to work efficiently.

Chaos Draft is a Limited format of playing Magic: the Gathering where you draft cards, that is, you pick one card from a booster pack and then pass it to your neighbor. However, unlike regular Booster Draft which is used in carefully crafted environment, Chaos Draft uses booster packs from a maximum of different set.[1][2][3]

The drafting experience is on a different level since you never know what's coming next. Chaos drafts are never the same. There are basically infinite combinations of possible boosters and the cards within. Chaos Draft rewards you for having a solid understanding of the standout Limited cards from Magic's past. In-set synergies are usually to be avoided, because there are not enough of those cards to work efficiently.
